I can honestly say that Dues Ex: Human Revolution is the best game that I've played so far in 2011. However, this new found enthusiasm was unexpected. Fall is upon us, and I am sure that my opinion will change by years end.

U need to play Deus Ex...

I think that you might have a point there! Because I loved DA2 and I could not put that game down to save my life. However, I was recently having a conversation with a friend and so far I still have to give the edge to Deus Ex, only because I hated the all the rehashed dungeons in the game.

I will also say this, if u like DA2 and Dungeon Siege 3, then Deus Ex is right up your ally. Because Deus Ex, really is an action rpg like DA2 and so far the story is really reall engulfing.

2011 so far

Its been a pretty good year thus far. Im gonna go with Dead Space 2 as one of my top picks because of its replay value. ( so many epic set pieces too) Others that have impressed me are: Portal 2, Mortal Kombat and Catherine. I might rent Deus Ex cause it looks promising. I cant wait for Uncharted 3! ^^ That might take the cake and be my game of the year.

why wait till fall

Good choices and I forgot about DS2, but that's only because I didn't finish it yet. I beat the first Dead Space and loved it, however, DS2, didn't really keep my attention, but I do plan on beating it.

As for Portal 2, another great game, but I can only take so much abuse (damn puzzles!!) I thought that Catherine was pretty damn cool, and original....so you are dead on with that. And as for MK9 - all I can say is that the online really brings that game down!

I can't argue with you, because all your choices were solid, and your right Uncharted 3 will own everyone, but the same can be said for Battlefield 3, Dark Souls, Batman: AC, Resistance 3, Skyrim, etc...

new ideas

I will say this...Atlus has suprised me the last 2 years - first with Demon Souls which i couldn't put down even if my house was on fire and I was in it playing (D E M O N - S O U L S!!!!) and Catherine was a breathe of fresh air for me!!

However, Portal.......HMMM, lets just say that I have a love hate relationship with that game!!
